Minibot Ramp
I've been reading through all the minibot threads on Chief Delphi that include ramps in the deployment design, and i have found very little in-depth description of their designs. I'm essentially wanting to know, what it is the best angle/diameter for the ramp to maximize the speed/minimize the time of the minibot reaching the top? Im assuming weight, magnets, friction, etc. would factor in. If someone could post the math to figure this out, or what they did to maximize efficiency would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks from team 461,
-Duke
